Brain Test Level 251 Walkthrough & Answer
Level 251★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
When I ran through Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles myself, Level 251 was one of the puzzles where I had to put the phone down and think for longer than I wanted to admit. The walkthrough below is what I worked out, plus the reason the trick works.
## Question
**Brain Test Level 251:** Combine the elements to create gold
## Answer
Drag 'Au' from the periodic table shown, or combine the word 'go' + 'ld' from the question text.
## Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Alchemy is impossible, but Brain Test has a different idea. If a periodic table snippet is shown, find Au (gold's symbol). Or combine letters from the screen to spell 'GOLD.' Sometimes dragging the sun onto metal creates 'gold' colored metal.
Here is exactly how to solve Brain Test Level 251:
1. Read the question carefully — Brain Test loves wordplay and misdirection.
2. Look at every element on screen, including the question text itself.
3. Find Au on the periodic table or combine letters to spell GOLD from screen elements.
4. If you are stuck, remember that Brain Test rewards lateral thinking over logical answers.
## Why It's Tricky
Scientific knowledge vs. game logic. You know alchemy is impossible, so you assume the puzzle is purely metaphorical. But Brain Test uses visual/textual manipulation — spelling GOLD or finding Au is a language puzzle disguised as a chemistry one.
## Why This Level Is Tricky
For difficulty 4, expand your toolkit: try shaking the device, using the volume rocker, covering the camera, or pressing the home button area. Also try dragging seemingly static elements like the level number, score display, or hint button. Brain Test treats everything on screen as a potential puzzle piece at this tier. Late-game levels (151-300) frequently require device interaction — tilting your phone, using multiple fingers, shaking the device, or manipulating screen elements outside the puzzle area. Think beyond the touchscreen for these multi-step solutions.
## Common Mistakes
Players frequently make these errors on Level 251:
- Applying real-world logic to a puzzle that rewards absurd lateral thinking.
- Overlooking small UI elements like the level counter, hint button, or settings icon, which sometimes play a role in the solution.
- Assuming the puzzle has only one interactive element when multiple objects might need to be combined.
